The whole distance was at least 3SsO miles, and was run without a sail up, or any advantage whatever from thfc wind, % 29 hours, making a general aver-, age of eight miles and one fifth in an hour. fThe engine was stopped over 90 times on the passages, Sos which each way, were at regular, landing places. And the weight on the safely valve averaged less than •fibs* during the whole time ; when fiibs. would have driven the boat nine miles an hour.J Ten, or even 7 years ago, nothing short of superna - tural agency was supposed* capable of effecting what we AoW see accom plished by the genius of Mi'. Fulton.
